Our Program

Developing a life long enthusiasm for learning . . .

Preschool can be one of the most important educational experiences that your child can have. It provides a strong foundation to your child’s life long learning experience.

At our preschool, we help prepare children not only for kindergarten but for life . . . through activities that help them learn language, math, science, dexterity, expression, imagination and social skills. Come see for yourself. You’ll find that when learning is fun, kids love to learn.

St. Francis preschool wants to help you and your child have a positive outlook on education. We are a developmental program that focuses on the needs of the whole child. These focuses are cognitive, spiritual, physical, emotional, and social. We meet the child where their developmental ability maybe and help them grow from there.

Not surprising we love to play; playing is a child’s way of learning. Our environment promotes all aspect of play, so that they can learn about everything around them.

Our Mission

The mission of St. Francis of Assisi Preschool is to offer a Catholic education that helps to prepare preschoolers for Kindergarten. Our commitment is to provide a safe, nurturing environment where learning experiences meet children’s diverse individual and collective needs.

St. Francis of Assisi Preschool gives children the opportunity to learn through experimentation and with spirituality so they develop a solid foundation with a life long enthusiasm for learning.

Our Philosophy

Children learn best through hands-on, minds-on, real-life experiences and developmental practices. All domains of growth (social, spiritual, physical, emotional, and intellectual) are equally valued and integrated. Children also learn to value and respect others and participate as part of a group.

Our curriculum is integrated with the religious calendar and skills are taught in meaningful contexts. When a child’s whole being is honored and respected, the innate desire to learn is developed and enhanced.

Katie hopes that each day is a school day, just as her brother did when he went to St. Francis of Assisi. She has learned how to be part of a group. She comes home singing songs and telling me the exciting moments of her school day: Those moments show me what a success the preschool has been.
